I don’t write as much as I should, but when I do, I usually write comedy, horror, adventure, action and…

Bakery?

(If you’re confused, don’t worry so am I.)

What’s your most unpopular writing opinion?

@kathleenramm I bought it at Barnes and Nobles, because my library didn’t have it, sadly. I think it was the first manga I actually bought. I’ve seen the live action too, but not the anime yet. What did you like about it?

@calidris

Your friend has great taste. Erased was so good I watched it in two days.

Visuals in writing is so fun. It’s a challenge because you can only use words instead of actual imagery, but that somehow makes it all the better because you have to get creative with it.

My favorite part about writing is exploring different characters. Their…[Read more]

@calidris I have too many projects so I have all types, haha.

@calidris I love writing him with any of my other characters, because he just spices up the scene so much. Chaos ftw.

@calidris Can’t decide…too many… I like writing Akira a lot. A sarcastic, no-good barista. Rides a skateboard, chaotic neutral.

Greetings and salutations.

Welcome to this epic forum.

Questions:

1: What other anime do you watch besides Hiakyuu? My favorites are Death note, Erased and Attack On Titan

2: Don’t like pineapple on pizza.

@calidris Yess it’s always like that for me even though I dictate the outline they still do their own thing in each scene. And at this point the depressing endings are plentiful.

Yep, my characters are all their own beings now. I rarely plot them beforehand, and sometimes I’m surprised by how different than I thought they would be.

@calidris Samee I feel your pain. Usually I just make it up as I go along and don’t plot anything. It’s a ride.

@calidris Oh wow! That is really creative! Is it possible to go through the Veil?

@calidris

I 100% mean what I said! Your art is amazing!

Yeah, I do art too! Last year I challenged myself to draw a sketch a day for a year, so my art improved a lot last year. However this year has been it bit harder to draw since I’m trying to get my drivers license, acting in plays, plus trying to improve my YouTubing skills, oh and of course…[Read more]

My jaw literally dropped when the image loaded on my screen.

The character design is so unique and the colors and blending is gorgeous. Everything from the eyes hair and clothing is perfect.

Do you use colored pencils or pastels?

@kathleenramm YO ERASED I have all the manga it’s the first manga I bought it’s so good it just brings tears to my eyes—

@calidris Oo, a mining museum! That sounds pretty cool.

Hmm okay. Then I’ll give you a variety of genres. Your lie in April is a really beautiful anime about music. I really enjoyed A Silent Voice manga as well, and the a…[Read more]

Hey! Welcome to the forum! It’s awesome to have you here.

I’m Kathleen, and I live most of my life in fictional worlds rather than in reality. May not be the best decision, but at least I can come up with a bunch of cool story ideas. XD

I’ve heard a lot of good things about Haikyu, but haven’t watched it. As of now, probably my…[Read more]

@calidris Give me some genres you like, and I’ll recc you some anime, heh. There’s a lot of different stuff out there.

Yee, I have a ton of current projects. Yesterday I just started a short story about alter egos and reality. And, yeah, I totally get having everything in your head. I used to be like that too.

I love Interstellar as well! And I…[Read more]

@calidris Oh my word someone else who watches anime! I haven’t watched Haikyu before but I know a lot of people like it.

Yo, your WIP sounds so cool! I love like modern fantasy type of things. It’s what I write too. I would love to hear more about Spire!

Anyways, I’m Linyang, a lot of people here call me Lin, I like writing fantasy, crime,…[Read more]

@kathleenramm About five or six years ago I started writing it. Stories, hmm…maybe it’s been a decade. It’s been a long time, ha…

@nova21

I love hearing what movies or books inspired writers to write their own stories. It’s so fun to see one person’s story inspire another story that possibly will inspire yet another person’s story. XD

It’s really cool how you were able to take all of your favorite things about stories and make them into your own story.

Have you ever…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

That’s really cool how it started off as a world you wanted to escape to. It kinda makes me want to do the same.

I feel like it would be really fun, but also could be really cathartic and make an interesting story with all the freedom for imagination.

How long ago did you start making the stories?

@keilah-h

With each…[Read more]

@kathleenramm This is actually the sequel of a sequel of a spinoff for my original idea for Thirteen Ways, ha… It started out with me wanting to make a world where I could escape to, and gradually I just added on, and on, and on… And now, thankfully, I’ve run out of ideas for it.
